To remove the StartupCheckLibrary.dll error, first download Autoruns:

https://live.sysinternals.com/Autoruns.exe

  • Run Autoruns.exe as administrator.
  • In the Filterbox up top Enter: startupcheck
  • You should see a Task Scheduler entry:\Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\StartupCheckLibrary
  • Right click on this entry and Delete.

...and that's the end of the error.

BTW Ignore any advice that recommends restoring this dll from quarantine. It's a CoinMiner and you really don't want it!

    Then click VIEW YOUR UPDATE HISTORY
    Choose UNINSTALL UPDATES and find the 1909 update
    Click it and choose UNINSTALL on the top bar.
    Next step is to download the Media Creation Tool via https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/software-downlo...
    Run the program and select UPDATE
